There are lots of breeds of tigers like the sumatran,the siberian and the bengal tiger . There are also the south china tiger, the malayan tiger and the Indochinese tiger.

Tigers can live to 25 years old

A group of tiger is called a ambush or a streak

Tigers are great swimmers,they can swim up to 6 kilometers.

            Tigers can go up to 65 kph and usually hunt alone at night. Also Tigers can jump a length of 5 meters long.

Sadly some breeds of tigers are going extinct because they hunt the cows in villages and the farmers have to shoot the tigers to protect the cows. They are Also going extinct because people hunt them for their skins and teeth, this is called poaching and it is illegal.

Baby tigers are called tiger cubs  

The mother tiger gives birth after 3 and a half months.

There are usually 3 or 4 cubs in each litter

In the wild they usually have the cubs in a cave without the father in the cave

Fun fact

Tiger cubs are only 2 pounds when they are born.
